Abstract

Objective: To describe and compare mucosal admittance (MA) in patients with extra-esophageal of gastroessophageal reflux disease. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted from 8/2021 to 8/2021 among patients who had GERDQ score ≥ 8 and at least one of the  extraesophageal symptoms: Noncardiac chest pain, chronic cough, laryngitis chronic, erosive tooth. Results: The study recruited 34 patients who met the study criteria. The mean age was 46.8 ± 13.3, the female/male ratio was 1.27. The mean GERDQ score was 9.8 ± 1.6. The most common extraesophageal symptoms were noncardiac chest pain (55.9%), chronic cough and sore throat (44.1%). 58.82% of patients with reflux esophagitis on endoscopy, all were grade A. In patients with extraesophageal GERD: median MA values (interquartiles) at positions 5cm, 15cm and 20 -25cm respectively is 28.0 (19.1 - 38.1); 32.7 (19.5 – 41.3) and 33.2 (19.5 – 44.1). There was no difference of MA between patients with and without erosive esophagitis. Conclusion: MA was higher in patients with extra-esophageal of gastroessophageal reflux disease than healthy control and there was no difference between patients with and without erosive esophagitis.
